but I want us to pay attention to

而是我希望大家关注
what exactly obligations of gratitude require us to do.

感恩的义务究竟要求我们做些什么
In particular, it's important to bear in mind

尤其是大家要记住
that you owe the person who gives you a gift something only

只有当他/她给你的是一件礼物
when what he's giving you, or she's giving you, is a gift.

你才欠他的人情
Imagine that somebody, I'll call him The Bully,

假设有个人我们叫他霸王吧
gives you a pie and says, "Eat it."

他给了你一个派然后说吃了它
But it's not an apple pie.

可那不是苹果派
It's not a cherry pie.

也不是樱桃派
It's some gross, disgusting,

而是一种恶心的油腻粘乎的
slime pie, some rotting slime pie,

已经变了质的派
and he cuts out a big piece and he says,

他切下一大块对你说
